UNSPSC 85512048, Bypass left internal iliac artery to left femoral artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach, is a Commodity code that does not match the work actually being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities posted under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, specialty surgical carve-out networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and pediatric detention healthcare services — none of which involve vascular surgical procedures or the specific procedural code's clinical scope. The code appears to be a medical billing or claims taxonomy entry that state and local procurement systems have misapplied to health services and benefits administration contracts, creating a categorical mismatch between the code's nominal surgical procedure and the administrative and staffing services actually being bought.

The issuing bodies include county human resources divisions, county health systems, state transportation departments, municipal retirement offices, and county probation departments across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The six recent opportunities span July through October 2026, with response dates clustered between September and October 2026. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive, multiple-award), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 county employees and 4,800 covered members (RFP 25-8414, based on historical $8.7 million annual pharmacy spending, initial term January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2028). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope.
